Here's a follow-up to a story Daily RFT brought you early last month. Latonya Davis, a 21-year-old mother from the 4800 block of Bessie in north St. Louis, has been identified as the person who posted a video last month of two toddlers fighting on Facebook.
.
.
Police have identified one of the kids as Davis' daughter and the other as a boy she was babysitting. Both kids are under the age of four.

"Ahh, shi*. Got some action! Got some action!" Davis yells as the children begin punching each other in the face. "Ya'll better ball up some fists! Hit back!"

Yesterday, the St. Louis Circuit Attorney's Office named Davis as the defendant in the case and charged her with two counts of child endangerment.
.
.
Defendant was so proud of what she had done, that she then posted a video of the fight to her Facebook account.

The Latonyas of the world and their "Chicago values" are the reason we also see headlines like this: Mississippi boy, 9, caught on day care surveillence video beating toddlers.

That’s it, I’m going on the down low with my toddler cage fights. Sure made a lot of money though and almost nobody died.

[gundog]

No, but I’ve seen it.

Thanks for posting the mug shot.

Latonya is guilty as hell.

Her husband should have told her it wasn’t a good idea to post that on facebook...

I remember back when In Living Color would lampoon the names Black people were giving their children. Sha Na Na (pronounced Sha Nay Nay)was from the 50’s Revival band.

Don’t forget the ATF agent known as “G.G.” in Unintended Consequences.

Just as I suspected - Walnut Park - biggest sh!thole in the St. Louis area. So gang infested that the cops won’t go there alone.

She looks good in orange.

Hope she keeps wearing that for many years.

Gonhorrea Gaily. It’s such a happy sounding name.

I like Nosmo King. Sounds royal, even though it’s from a sign.

Am I the first to say “If obama had a son he’d look like this kid”?

Flash mob training? Absolutely disgusting!
